WARNING
●
Always pay attention, by looking directly,
to traffic and the area around the vehicle.
Assistance systems are not a replacement for
driver awareness. Responsibility always lies
with the driver.
●
The sensors have blind spots in which ob-
stacles and people are not detected. Pay spe-
cial attention to children and animals.
●
Always keep visual control of the surround-
ings: use the mirrors for additional help.
NOTICE
Park assist plus functions can be affected by
various factors which may cause damage:
●
Under certain circumstances, the system
does not detect or display certain objects:
–
Chains, trailer draw bars, bars, fences,
posts and thin trees.
–
Objects that are located above the sen-
sors, such as protrusions in a wall.
–
Objects with certain surfaces or struc-
tures, such as wire mesh fences or powder
snow.
●
Certain surfaces of objects and garments
do not reflect the ultrasound sensors' signals.
The system cannot detect these objects or
people wearing such clothes correctly.
●
Sensor signals may be affected by external
sound sources. This may prevent them from
detecting people or objects.
Parking and manoeuvring
Parking aid Plus
●
If the system warns you of the proximity of
a low obstacle, please note that after being
detected by the system, the obstacle in ques-
tion may disappear from the measurement
sensors as the vehicle moves closer, and the
system will no longer warn of its presence. In
certain circumstances, objects such as high
kerbs that could damage the underside of
the vehicle are not detected.
●
If the parking distance warning system is
ignored, the vehicle could suffer considera-
ble damage.
●
Damage to the radiator grille, bumper,
wheel arch and vehicle underbody can mod-
ify the orientation of the sensors. This can
affect the parking aid function.
Have the function checked by a specialised
workshop.
●
A number plate or number plate holder
with dimensions that exceed the space for
the number plate, or a cured or deformed
number plate can cause false detections or a
loss of visibility for the sensors.
Note
● The display on the Infotainment system
screen shows a slight time delay.
● In certain situations, the system can give a
warning even though there is no obstacle in
the detected area:
– Rough or cobbled surfaces or surfaces
with long grass.
– External ultrasound sources, such as
other vehicles equipped with ultrasound
systems.
– Heavy rain or snow, hail or dense exhaust
gases.
– If the number plate is not properly se-
cured to the surface of the bumper.
– Gradient changes.
● In order to guarantee good operation, keep
the sensors clean, free of snow and ice, and
do not cover them with stickers or other ob-
jects.
● If you use high-pressure or vapour equip-
ment for cleaning, do not apply it directly,
unless you do so very briefly, and always keep
a distance of more than 10 cm away.
● Fitting certain accessories to the front of
the vehicle, such as a plate holder with ad-
vertising, may interfere with the operation of
the Park Assist.
● We recommend that you practice parking
in an area without traffic.
